IB raises monthly fees

Effective with the October monthly billing cycle, customers choosing to subscribe to U.S. non-professional real-time market data will no longer have the $10 (or USD equivalent) monthly fee waived unless the monthly activity fees generated by that specific account total $30 or more.

This represents a change to the prior policy under which this fee was waived if the monthly activity fees for all related accounts, collectively, totaled $30 or more.

How much does IB charge customers who choose not to subscribe to U.S. non-professional real-time market data?

Can one choose not to subscribe market data? I mean not at all, one even in one account, so as not to be charged $10 fee for each account?

TIA

under account management, you can subscribe/unsubscribe to markets as you please. (note: keep in mind if you subscribe at any time during the month, you'll be charged since that's how the reporting to the exchanges work).

I just sign up today and tick all the free services they are offering--So those free services have fees if you don't have 30 bucks of comm. for the month?? Do they have the best rates among brokers?? I'm only interested on equities for now.
